Volkswagen's I.D. Crozz concept. Volkswagen Volkswagen is getting ready to unveil a suite of electric vehicles in 2020 — and its latest concept reveal at the Shanghai Auto Show hints that we should get ready for a small SUV.

On Tuesday, Volkswagen debuted its I.D. Crozz: an all-electric crossover SUV that "underlines just how diverse the range of future Volkswagen electric models is going to be," the automaker wrote in a press release.

Volkswagen is far from the only automaker pursuing electric SUVs. Tesla is working on a battery-powered crossover called the Model Y. It will be smaller than the Model X and is expected to be more affordable than its high-end SUV.

Jaguar and Mercedes are also planning to release electric SUVs in 2018. And the Chevy Bolt is already on the market and gets a range of 248 miles.

The German automaker is investing heavily in battery-powered vehicles in response to its emissions cheating scandal. Volkswagen will introduce 30 electric or hybrid vehicles by 2035 and invest $2 billion in electric charging stations.

Volkswagen says its Crozz is capable of driving 311 miles on a single charge, meaning it's set to compete with other long-range electric SUVs on the market in 2020.

That kind of range is made possible by Volkswagen's Modular Electric Drive platform, or MEB, which the automaker has put a lot of stock into. Volkswagen has said it will give vehicles mileage that's "on par with today's gasoline-powered cars by the end of the decade."

The MEB architecture allows Volkswagen to place its drive system components — the two motors, high voltage battery, and electronics linking everything together —under the floor. That frees up interior space.

... And its I.D. Buzz Concept that can drive up to 270 miles on a single charge.

"If it was ever possible to make a 100% certain prediction of what the future will look like, here it is," Klaus Bischoff, Volkswagen's head of design, said of the MEB platform.

"For us, the three prototypes of this new generation of zero-emission vehicles—I.D., I.D. BUZZ and I.D. CROZZ—mark the start of a design and technology revolution that is going to change individual mobility and the Volkswagen brand forever," Bischoff continued.
